A:AnswerHi Nick, thank you for the question. The 17-cp0700dx RAM can be upgraded, however, due to the location of the Lithium ion battery, we suggest that the upgrade be performed by a professional technician, such as Geek Squad.
A:AnswerThank you for the question. This laptop does not have an Intel processor. The HP 17-cp0700dx has a 6-core processor, the AMD Ryzen 5-5500U. (AMD and Intel are processor brands, and the Ryzen 5-5500U will undoubtedly meet your specifications - it has 6 cores instead of 4).
A:AnswerI don't know. I was very disappointed in my purchace because there was no sales slip, setup instructions or owners manual in the box. Attempt to get help online, customer service have been no help. It is my last purchace online at Best Buy
A:AnswerFirst I am a member of Tech support, so no cost. Really don't know if there is a charge to transfer data on old computer. Mine is new so no charge. Don't know about buying and loading Excel, I do not have it.
